CARE OF SKIN AROUND THE EYES

Causes of Skin Problems Around the Eyes

There are four main skin aging affects around the eyes. Let's first examine these and the common causes before we look at eye creams and treatments that may help prevent these conditions.

Dark Circles - Blue or gray circles may be due to allergies or pooling blood. Try DNA Repair Creme, found at www.ihdistribution.com.

Undereye Puffiness - If you’re puffy only upon awakening – its likely to be due to fluid retention. Try sleeping on thicker or more pillows can prevent liquids from pooling.

If you have been using a new face cream or rubbing your eyes - this can cause swelling. Use gel that contains a blood-vessel constrictor, like witch hazel, and an anti-inflammatory, like chamomile extract, can temporarily reduce irritation. Home remedy: Mix one drop each of witch hazel, brewed chamomile tea, and over-the-counter cortisone lotion. Lay a cucumber slice on top to help the paste penetrate.

If puff is always present - try a concentrated eye repair cream to reduce puffiness and repair the delicate tissue around the eye.

Crow’s Feet - When you smile the muscles around them contract, and a little elasticity is lost. Combine with sun exposure for 30 years, you’ve got crow’s feet. DNA Repair Crème, found at www.ihdistribution.com

Drooping - Most firming creams have little, if any, effect on sagginess – so this is a job for cosmetics, strategically applied to define and visually “lift” the eyes. Find Out How
